The Hotpod Unlimited

Freestanding multi fuel and wood burning stove

The cast iron Hotpod Unlimited wood burning / multi fuel stove

To take the Hotpod business further, we had to find a way to make more stoves to meet demand. We either had to find more Dans and somehow bring them up to speed making Hotpods from recycled gas bottles, or we had to cast them. Dan was initially not keen to go down the casting route thinking it would detract from his recycling ethic. That was until he visited the foundry in Dudley and saw the whole process;
The new Hotpod ‘Unlimited’ is made from re melted brake disks, train wheels, park benches, pipes and gratings, engines and railings to name just a few things, but as you can see, it is still every inch a Hotpod (although it is a bit heavier)
The Hotpod Unlimited has now been laboratory tested in compliance with EN13240 ( the European standard for multi-fuel stoves) and passed with flying colours and an incredible 81.3% efficiency for wood burning and 75.7% for anthracite.
Since October the 1st 2011, it is a DEFRA exempt appliance for use burning wood in smoke free zones.

The Hotpod is designed for operation with the door closed. Heat is mainly diffused by infrared radiation from the main body and the window and by air convection from the stove body and any exposed flue pipe.
Combustion occurs on the grate, with draught (oxygen) entry through the primary and secondary air vents.
All local regulations, including those referring to national and European standards need
to be complied with when installing the appliance.
the Hotpod should not be modified in any way.
